Abstract
The present technology relates to an interchangeable lens and a method for controlling the same capable of starting shooting in consideration of mechanical fluctuations after a diaphragm is driven, a shooting apparatus, and a camera system. An interchangeable lens includes a diaphragm, a diaphragm driving unit that drives the diaphragm, and a lens control unit that transmits diaphragm driving information including stabilization time information of the diaphragm to a shooting apparatus when the diaphragm driving unit drives the diaphragm. The present technology is applicable to lens-interchangeable digital cameras, and the like, for example.
